Nottingham Castle coronation concert crowd hope venue will keep 'making more of its space'

People who attended a packed Nottingham Castle screening of the coronation concert say the venue needs to keep "making more of its space" in future. The grounds of the historic site reopened for the first time since November over the coronation weekend, with the crowning of King Charles III marking the first event on Saturday (May 6).

Hundreds then queued round the block to enter the Castle gates on Sunday (May 7) as the big screen blasted out a special coronation concert. The gig was opened by Nottingham's own Jerub and featured stars such as Katy Perry.

The evening sun cast a glow over the Castle as the crowd enjoyed the variety of food and drink on offer in the grounds. Those attending said it was good to see Nottingham Castle back open, and hoped it would hold similar events in future.
